Any moment you spend attacking yourself is a moment away from your higher purpose and your power to love. Don't go there.

Use anything you can think of to understand and be understood, and you'll discover the creativity that connects you with others.

No one else can take risks for us, or face our losses on our behalf, or give us self-esteem. No one can spare us from life's slings and arrows, and when death comes, we meet it alone.

Denial exists because human infants, though equipped with trust-o-meters, are built to trust, blindly and absolutely, any older person who wanders past.

Children who assume adult responsibilities feel old when they're young.

Feel about yourself what you would have others feel about themselves.

Own your failure openly, publicly, with genuine regret but absolutely no shame, and you’ll reap a harvest of forgiveness, trust, respect, and connection-the things you thought you’d get by succeeding. Ironic, isn’t it?
